activities to be in violation of the party’s constitution, particularly his
decision to sue the party as well as his anti-party activities. As such, we
have resolved to take appropriate disciplinary action against him as outlined
in the party’s constitution. Senator Jimoh Folorunso Ibrahim is hereby
suspended from the All Progressives Congress (APC) with immediate effect for
acts of insubordination and anti-party activities In accordance with Article
21, Section A of APC Constitution.
“It is worth recalling that the National Party Chairman of
APC, Alhaji Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, met with all Ondo State governorship
aspirants on April 25th, 2024, in Abuja.
“During the meeting, he urged them to cooperate with the
party’s candidate and incumbent Governor of Ondo State, Honorable Lucky
Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, Despite this, Senator Jimoh Ibrahim Folorunso proceeded to
sue the Governor and APC, blatantly disregarding party instructions.
Additionally, he has engaged in anti-party activities by urging his supporters
in Igbotako and Ondo State to join NPP, claiming he will soon receive the
gubernatorial ticket from them.
“Senator Jimoh has openly declared his intent to disrupt APC
before leaving the party, as evidenced by his actions in the Federal High Court
in Abuja and his derogatory remarks about APC in various media outlets.”
